Farmers Markets near Plymouth, MA

Now based at the Plymouth Public Library, 132 South Street, this producer-only market has grown to more than 40 vendors since its Plimoth Plantation days. It runs Thursdays, 2:30 to 6 p.m., through the outdoor season, plus a second-Thursday winter market back at Plimoth Plantation on Warren Avenue, with live music and family activities alongside the produce stalls.

Saturdays bring vendors to the 1820 Courthouse Green on Court Street, in the middle of historic downtown Plymouth, for a market selling fresh produce, eggs, meat, and other goods straight from area farms alongside local artisans' work.

This indoor winter market sets up Saturdays, 10am to 2pm, at the American Legion Hall on Route 130 in Sandwich. Vendors bring homemade breads, honey, beef, pork, lamb, jams and pickles, salad greens, muffins, and soap.

Marshfield

Marshfield

The Marshfield Farmers' Market, established in 2006 at the Marshfield Fairgrounds, runs Friday afternoons June through September and monthly winter Saturdays October through May — indoor/outdoor at the grandstand, rain or shine. Known as a very friendly market where vendors have become family (a third are Marshfield residents), it offers 100% local produce, pasture-raised animal products, baked goods, and home goods with free parking and admission.

A growers-only market — no resellers — sets up Saturday mornings, 8 a.m. to noon, in the Plumb Corner Market parking lot on Route 105 North, 565 Rounseville Road, from May through October. Produce, baked goods, meat, and dairy come from farms within roughly 50 miles.

Falmouth

The Falmouth Farmers Market runs every Thursday from late May through mid-October, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., at Marine Park on Scranton Avenue — with a popular indoor Winter Market at Mullen Hall School keeping dozens of local farmers, bakers, and makers busy through the cold months.

Dartmouth

Dartmouth Farmers' Market runs June through September at Rex Field next to St. Peter's Church in Padanaram Village, gathering local produce, flowers, meat, eggs, baked goods, and handmade crafts. It's built as much around community as commerce, doubling as a weekly meeting spot for the village.

Bigger than a typical farmers market, this Saturday gathering at 719 Washington Street runs 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. year-round, rain or shine. Local produce and dairy farms share space with bakeries, a coffee vendor, soap and candle makers, a pet food stall, and a kids' toy swap.
